Very low priced ,( $6 less than strings by mail ), and the lowest possible shipping .
Will buy more in the future ...
The 7C is a beautiful guitar with a deep and warm tone! It’s has great playability and I’m very pleased with it. Geoff was very helpful and did a great job setting up the guitar and packing it for shipment. Probably the best online guitar purchase experience I’ve had.
I bought the Jose Ramirez Studio 2 guitar for my granddaughter. Therefore I don't get to play it very often. My granddaughter adores her Ramirez and her teacher told her it is a splendid instrument for learning and performing. She truly is delighted with it.
XGuitars, and namely, Geoffrey were great to work with. Geoffrey is professional and clearly well informed about guitars. I highly recommend Geoffrey and his guitar store, X-Guitars. I am thoroughly and completely satisfied with my purchase and with the professionalism of the owner.
Finding the perfect strings for a particular guitar can be a costly trial and error process. Having recently purchased a new set of tuning machines that Geoff guided me towards, I decided to ask for his guidance regarding strings. I sent him the make and model of my Alhambra cutaway, and told him the sound I was wanting. He responded promptly with three recommendations. I decided on one, and I couldn't be more pleased. I should add that I live on the West coast. But I'll continue to do business with Geoff because of his knowledgeable advice and superb customer service.
These were recommended by my guitar tech, David Mannella in Pittsburgh, as well as esteemed luthiier R.E. Brune as being appropriate for my Alhambra 8p and an upgrade from the previous tuners. They are amazing... super smooth, like having a new instrument. More than happy. And my tech was highly impressed as well! Thanks to Geoff from XGUITARS for also leadiing me in this direction. I'll definitely keep XGUITARS as my first call for any guitar-related purchases!
adds to the value of the Sage support allowing use on multiple guitars
Bigger hands and the size of the sound hole on my Cordoba C12s made the installation of the magnets inside the guitar a bit of a challenge but I got the job done and I am pleased with the results.
Ten months ago, I replaced my Cordoba C10's original tuners with a Der Jung DJ106GX set, which were under $100. The Der Jungs turned out to be unacceptable: there was quite a bit of backlash (looseness) when tuning lower and the set screw at the end of one of the buttons kept falling out. I just replaced those with Schaller Grand Tune Hauser Tuning Machines and, thus far, they seem significantly improved - little-to-no backlash. There are no button set screws so that won't be an issue. I also love the way they look - classy and elegant.
Shipped quickly in a sensibly sized box. Excellent service as usual! Thanks, Geoff!
My 2006 Richard Prenkert lattice-braced classical guitar came equipped with Savarez 500 AR, but after a few years I started trying different brands, some less expensive. I recently returned to Savarez strings and am again obtaining the sound and response I used to achieve from my new guitar. I think I'll stick with them henceforth.
XGuitars seems to have the lowest prices for these string sets, although I have to admit it took two full weeks for the strings to arrive in California after I placed my order. Fortunately, I was not in a rush to replace the old strings, so it's all good.
Finding left-handed items is not the easiest, so I was glad to find XGuitars and the Tappert support works well. The suction cups are working fine on my Cordoba. They are adjustable (slide) so that you can get them aligned based on where you end up attaching it to the guitar, so that is helpful in getting a good fit.
I own a student model GVR and it's the best guitar I have ever owned.
Treble sings like nothing else, very easy to play and have the best smooth and warm tone out of any nylon strings I've tried. Bass is well balanced with trebles. Highly recommended!
I'm impressed! These strings are the best I've ever tried. Very responsive, tune perfect. Basses are deep and strong, trebles are balanced. These Carbon Knobloch are perfect for real concert instruments. Highly recommend!
Several weeks ago, a knob on one of my guitar tuners broke off. Upon inspection, I noticed that several other knobs were cracked. I contacted the very fine store in Seattle, where I'd purchased my Alhambra cutaway, in search of guidance for a new, upgraded set of tuning machines. They weren't able to give the help I needed, but referred me to a company that sells guitar parts, who in turn referred me elsewhere. I contacted different guitar stores and suppliers around the country, but to no avail. A web search for U.S. Alhambra dealers introduced me to X Guitars. I contacted Geoff there and explained what I was looking for. He did some research and quickly sent me a number of options for tuning machines that would work. I ordered a set, and am very pleased with them. I was also both pleased and impressed with Geoff's responsive and knowledgeable customer service. Though I live on the U.S. West coast, I'll continue to do business with Geoff and X Guitars. Of all the folks I spoke with, he was by far the most helpful.l
I was so pleased to get the strings I ordered quickly and at a very competitive price. I had actually submitted 2 separate string orders. Geoff saw the separate orders, combined them for shipping and refunded the second shipping charge. Now that's customer friendly!!!! BTW, the Ramirez classical strings are really an awesome fit to my Ramirez 2a. Tone is sweet and without sharpness in the trebles...G is strong as well...
Why pay more for these unique strings ?
Go for the nice price and get to know a new company .
Glad, to get to know Geoff, he is very helpfull, anda man of his word, i will deal with him anytime thank you, Oscar larragoiti.
Let me start out by saying this is an amazing guitar. I did a lot of homework and payed many classical guitars. This guitar is amazingly balanced, the sound is pure. I have never played an original Hauser so I can’t compare. This guitar is very easy to play, and is very enjoyable.
The customer service you will receive from Geoff at Xguitars is amazing. He truly wants you to have a great experience and get what you are after. He set the guitar up as I asked and even helped me with fine tuning. He was very patient and responsive with all my questions. I appreciate his time and knowledge. Excellent company. I will buy from them again.
I contacted Geoff through this website to inquire about in-stock items and he reported these were on order. Once ordered, they arrived quickly.
These replaced a set of Schaller standard tuners which were operating very well but didn’t fit the look of this wine colored crossover. The dimensions are the same as the standard Schallers, but I had to do very minor fitting work to the guitar; nothing related to tuner quality.
The tuners are smooth and look much better than standard tuners on this very contemporary looking nylon string guitar.
With very few sellers of Schaller’s Grandtune tuners in the USA, I’m glad I found XGuitars.
I have a hand made K.Yairi classical guitar that was built in 1966. I needed a support for it, but was very concerned about what suction cups might do to its 59 year old finish. After considerable research I came across a well known online classical guitar instructor that had the "French Polish" finish on his guitar damaged by suction cups and he recommended the "Sagework" support which held the guitar in place with powerful magnets.
I purchased the Umbra model and could not be happier. Installation was easy and the support is secure and stays in place on my leg. Much more comfortable than the guitar foot stool I was using before.
The product is quality, the customer service is quality, and the experience is quality! That is winner in my book.
As advertised, it takes just one hand to install or remove. When installed, all strings are clear and responsive.
The Cordoba C9 Parlor Guitar is exactly what I needed. The short 630mm scale helps make stretches more comfortable. The smaller body makes it easier to maintain proper position and posture.
If you are getting older I truly recommend trying this guitar. It produces excellent sounds, makes playing more comfortable and practice seems to flyby.
I had these installed on my new Alhambra 9P Cedar. Nice feel, I like the tension and especially love the sound. As long as they keep making them, I'll keep playing them.
